whole rather than the portrait subject.

face closest to the center; other faces are indicated by white borders.•If the selected subject leaves the frame, the camera will wait a set

time for its return and consequently the green frame may sometimes appear in locations where no face is seen.•Depending on shooting conditions, face selection may be suspend-

ed at the close of burst shooting.•Faces can be detected with the camera in vertical or horizontal ori-

entation.•If the camera is unable to detect the subject’s eyes because they are
